Maker's bio

I have been turning wood since just before the end of the last century. I have been demonstrating turning at home and overseas for 20 years and teaching it for over 15 years. I have written many articles for the woodturning press and for the web. In 2011 I was awarded the Tony Boase Tribute award at the AWGB international seminar. I am an AWGB approved tutor and a tutor assessor. My aim is to provide you with the knowledge and techniques to take your woodturning to the next level and I teach all levels from complete beginners to experts.

Rob reviewed: Woodturning - Beginner's Platter and Bowl Turning

"I really enjoyed the day. Paul has a vast font of knowledge and skill, and is excellent at passing it on. Clear instruction at each part of the process. We had a big gap in experience levels of the people on the course, which Paul managed very well. Would recommend this course for anyone who wants a taster of wood turning"

"I'm glad you enjoyed the day. It was good to see you overcoming the challenges and finishing with some nice pieces to take home "
